  1. Its all about accessablility.You have to specify a background color with your color, and visa-versa.If you dont want a color or background colour, use :inherit;this will validate against W3C.Also check if its an error or a warning, if its a warning this is still valid code, but it p**ses me of that you cant have one with out the other.

    It seems the W3C validator doesn't like the keyword "transparent". If you explicitly use a color in any other form, it removes the warning. The strange thing is that it doesn't show a syntax error or anything. It just behaves as if background-color is not declared at all.I think I'm going to report this to the validator team right now.[edit] It's reported. See Bug 768 for details.[/edit]
    I belive that 'transparent' is only for fx, it wont work in ie, suprise spuprise,
  2. Alright Pal?Im not really sure as to what it is you are after, the page you have supplied is just an image???The design looks fine if thats what you mean.As far as i can see there isnt a lot we can do with just an image, can you shed some more light on the problem?p.s subject headers should be helpful 2, not just 'help needed'

  3. try giving it a seperate class and not on the body tag.scrollbar-arrow-color:#ffffff; scrollbar-base-color:#252525; scrollbar-shadow-color:#CABCA5; scrollbar-face-color:#252525; scrollbar-highlight-color:#E8ECF2; scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#3C2F1A; scrollbar-3dlight-color:#E8ECF2;Also scroll colours wont validate in css, but it depends if you want it to validate or not

  4. That is only a warning...css with warnings is still considered valid
    Yeah, but its unsightly. I think this is a pain in the jacksey.I dont want a valid page with warnings on it, it should be valid or not, ridiculous that this is not the case :)
  5. Wasn't it "inherrit"? I am not sure.You can either just use "transparent" or the actual same colour of the thing that is behind the footer. The later one would validate :)Besides, I don't think using words for colours is valid according to the validators. Though they do work in browsers.
    No - 'Inherit' does validate.Normally i would do that but the background image is a gradient, and the background color is on the <a>tag, so the link has a background color, thats what i dont want.
  6. Ok , so i got my site looking how i want and it all validates nicely....except for one thing.I dont want a background color on my footer links, so i putbackground-color:transparent;then i validate it and low and behold i get'You have no background-color with your color : #botMenu a'I know i havent i dont want one.So i change it to :inherit;That validates. Hooray, but now gives me an unwanted background color.What the deal? Please help because the office junior cant take much more beating.
